Practice Area
Five practices, and an advocate who has spent a career in each one
We do not claim to do everything. What we do, we do with someone who appears in that court, files with that commission and knows which registrar answers the phone.

Criminal Defence
From the first invitation to a police station to closing argument at the High Court, we defend the presumption of innocence with the seriousness it deserves. Bail applications, committal, trial and appeal.

Family Law
Divorce, custody, maintenance and the division of matrimonial property, handled by advocates who understand that the legal answer and the liveable answer are rarely the same document.

Incorporation, shareholder agreements, mergers, joint ventures and the contracts a growing business signs before it has a general counsel. Registrar-General filings included, never billed separately.
Read More
Property & Land
Title searches at the Lands Commission, leases, indentures, and the litigation that follows when two families hold documents for the same plot. We tell you what a search really found.

How We Work
Four stages, and you are told the cost before each one
The first meeting
Forty-five minutes, no charge. You tell us what happened; we tell you whether there is a matter here and what the realistic outcomes look like.
A written view
Within five working days you get our reading of your position, the routes open to you, and a fee for each of them. Nothing starts until you have agreed one.
The work
Filings, searches, negotiation or trial preparation — with a named advocate, a written update every fortnight, and a call whenever something changes.
Closing the file
A closing note covering what was decided, what it means in practice and what you should keep. We tell you plainly if an appeal is worth the money.

Tell us what happened. We will tell you where you stand.
The first meeting exists to work out whether we are the right firm for the matter in front of you. If we are not, we will say so and point you to somebody who is.
